I don't know about you, but I had a photographic life before I owned a digital camera and most of it is in slide projector carousels, shoeboxes and albums stashed in closets. From time to time, I make noises about scanning the stuff and bringing it into the digital age, but just the thought of the time it would take to do that is usually enough to nip that idea in the bud. That's why the service offered by ScanDigital piqued my interest.



The company will scan your slides, film negatives and photos; place them in your own personal online photo gallery; and return your originals to you with digitized versions of them on a CD or DVD.

Pricing is pretty reasonable, too. Prints scanned at 300 dpi are 48 cents each; 35 millimeter and APS negatives at 2000 dpi, 58 cents each; and 35 millimeter slides at 2000 dpi, 68 cents each.
